About this home
Charming Traditional home in the Anaheim Colony Historic District, offering 2 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms on a 5,269 SF lot. The home has been thoughtfully updated while retaining its original character, with a new roof, fresh interior and exterior paint, beautifully refinished original oak hardwood floors, an updated kitchen, and refreshed bathrooms with new tile and fixtures. New bedroom lighting, ceiling fans and dual pane windows add to the improvements throughout the home. The spacious backyard offers room to enjoy and includes a detached bonus space that could serve as a home office, studio, or additional flex space. With the appropriate improvements, the space may also offer potential for future ADU use. New landscaping and a wrought iron gate complete the exterior updates. Located among the tree-lined streets and charming homes of Anaheim Colony, this walkable neighborhood puts you close to local shops, restaurants, parks, and Disneyland. Enjoy the character of an established Anaheim neighborhood while being just minutes from one of Southern California's most iconic destinations. A classic home with original details, a generous lot, and plenty of opportunity to make it your own.
Anaheim Colony Historic District, located between Anaheim Boulevard and Harbor Boulevard, is a historic and walkable Anaheim neighborhood with a gridded street plan and a porch-lined streetscape. The district’s character concentrates around Center Street Promenade by the MUZEO Museum and Cultural Center, where patios, coffee counters, and small galleries set a steady street-scene. Restored Victorian and Craftsman homes mix with brick storefronts and civic buildings that signal Anaheim’s original town core. The Packing District adds a food-hall energy in a repurposed citrus warehouse. Community pillars include MUZEO, the Anaheim Packing House, and the historic Anaheim Ice rink. Pocket parks and the nearby Metrolink station keep daily routines grounded in the center-city geography.
